The suspect is described as a 6-foot black man wearing a dark baseball cap, a red hooded jacket and black pants. According to a release, he entered the Delaware Avenue store at about 8:47 p.m. and showed a silver handgun.
He reportedly fled the business carrying a black trash bag and fled in a newer white Honda vehicle northbound on Cherry Street.
Deputy Chief Tony Brooks said the man reportedly jumped the pharmacy counter and approached an employee. The man was only in the store briefly, and nobody was hurt.
“It was a short amount of time,” he said.
According to the release, those with information can call Marysville Police at 937-645-7300.

He said officers are checking other cameras in the area to see of there are better images of the suspect.
According to Brooks, the incident is still being investigated.
